A Presbyterian Church in Savar

A Presbyterian Church in Savar-
nah. Georgia, is about broken up be-
cause the Minister, in preaching a
sermon upon the theme "God in His
tory" traced the hand of the Lord in
the late war-as he viewed it-and
spoke Of Lincoln and Grant as ''God-
raised men, for the emergency" This
shows the extreme gentleness Of spir-
it animating your Confederate dove.
Any allusion to God and Christ is
enough to arouse the anger Of the old
serpent. He remembers the scourg-
ing he received at the hands of the
Lord.

Is Life

That depends upon the
Liver, for if the Liver is
inactive the whole sys-
TEN is, out of order-the
breath is bad, digestion
poor, head dull or aching,
energy and hopefulness
gone, the spirits are de-
pressed, a heavy weight
exists after eating, with
general dependency and
the blues. The Liver is
the housekeeper of the
health; and a harmless,
simple remedy that acts
like Nature, does not
constipate afterwards or
require constant taking,
does not interfere with
business or pleasure dur
ing its use, makes Sim

Union Relief to begin their winters work
among the poor. Cases of sickness and
need are already appealing to US. The
treasurer of the relief begs to remind the

we do so with knowledge of facts and in
Il way that makes it hardly possible for
them to abuse or misuse the assistance they
get The relief rooms will be open from 10

1 read in the GAZETTE Wednesday night,
that the lighting CT the street lamps had
been taken from the police force and that a
lamp.lighter, at salary of 5000, had been
employed Is not this another unnecessary
burden on This already over taxed. and I'm
fortunate city? The police have recently
had their salaries increased, and they haye
but little to do; they have heretofore light
ed the lamps ard were all elected knowing
this to be part Of their duty. Six hundred
dollars represents the tax on upwards of
$50, 900 worth of property, and the values 10
the city are not sufficiently on the increase to
warrant any such expenditure. The curse
of this city is its exorbitant tax rate, which
prevents many persons from building houses
or owning property here, aud there is little
chance OF reduction in taxes, when such
unnecessary outlays are made.
